      Hello,

      GRUB has stages. Stage 1 must install in MBR. Stage 2 is located usually on the root partition of the operating system you install (in this case Kubuntu). You should not worry about this, though.

      For most users, the installation of GRUB is a fairly automated process.

      Alternatively, you can add Kubuntu to Vista bootloader...
